In the wake of recent papal legislation, the various liturgies of
the Roman Rite may today be celebrated in either their
post-Tridentine or post-Vatican II forms. Whilst much discussion of
this new situation focuses on purely liturgical issues, this book
breaks new ground by arguing that the coexistence of the two forms
raises questions of a profoundly ecclesiological character. Peter
McGrail explores the relationship between ritual form, ecclesial
self- understanding and constructs of the world that are at play as
adults become members of the Church. Analysing the rites by which
adults were taken into the Church for three and a half centuries,
this book goes on to explore attempts to find a new ritual
expression for the journey to Christian Initiation, set against the
divergent and even conflicting ecclesiologies which were at play
before and during the Council.
